The best pairings for amontillado and palo cortado sherry

Posted on November 7 2023 at 06:59

Amontillado sherry has richer, nuttier flavours than a classic fino or manzanilla sherry and calls for different food matches. Think more in terms of cured meat, game and cheese than seafood and richer, meatier tapas.

Rabbit saltimbocca and the most divine creamy borlotti beans @toklas_london last night. Preceded by sea bass crudo. Such a lovely restaurant. Should go there more. . . . #rabbit #saltinbocca #beans #seabass #crudo #toklas #londonfoodThe most perfect autumn day, walking through the woods, collecting conkers . . . #autumn #conkers #fall #kentIs there anything better than a pie as a starter? Mini chicken and ham pies @theclifton_bristol’s incredibly buzzy Sunday night service. Where they run a short menu to clear the kitchen before they close for two days. 20% off drinks for customers who work in hospo too. Win win. Will miss you at the pass @williammrees #pie #pub #bristolfood #sundaynight #cliftonThanks @marinagpoloughlin for the tip-off that the wonderful @tomnd.c.a.l.e (ex Great Queen Street) is back on the food scene masterminding the menu @cafemission.e1. It’s a largely plant-based menu including this addictive Mysore style set dosa with pumpkin sabji and coconut chutney with the occasional fish and meat dish thrown in like this @chalk_stream trout and prawn cocktail . Fresh, healthy, well-priced food served in a lovely light airy room - or the terrace outside if it’s fine which let’s face it it rarely is at the mo. (Although it’s supposed to be warming up next week) Welcome back Tom! . . . #dosa #pumpkin #trout #prawncocktail #cafemission #tomnorringtondavies #spitalfields #guest Follow on Instagram
